4:00 pm
fox news channel for complete coverage are the next presidential debate. and that's news night at 9 p.m. and that's it for today. have a great week, and we'll see you next fox news sunday. >> this is the fox report, and there they are, new video coming into our news room, on the left screen president obama in virginia on the right governor romney, and preparing for the next showdown less than 48 hours from now and we already have seen one debate significantly alter the race for the white house, putting governor romney either neck and neck or out in some polls and in minutes more could be at stake when they meet again. also tonight, new pressure on the white house to provide answers about the terror
4:01 pm
attack on our u.s. consulate in libya. >> either they're misleading american people or presently incompetent. >> i think it's turning into a-- we can do better, we can. >> harris: accusations piling on over what went wrong on the murder of americans in libya. the obama administration, after sending conflicting message and fox report, how the truth is leading now to more questions than answers. also, standing on the edge of space. before attempting a record breaking jump back to earth. there's so much that can go wrong. i'm harris falkner, we begin with the back and forth getting pretty heated on this sunday. about what the white house knew and when, after four americans were murdered last month at the u.s. consulate in libya. as you know, that's u.s. soil
4:02 pm
in that country and that terror attack took out our ambassador christopher stevens. there's still a push to learn about security concerns in the days and weeks that led up to the assault. but tonight, new questions emerging about the initial response from the white house. first, telling the american people the attack was a spontaneous reaction to a youtube video critical of islam and that of course turned out not to be true with the obama administration admitting days later it was in fact a pre-planned terrorist attack, and now growing allegations and the white house deliberate deceived the public. >> either they're misleading the american people or critically incompetent. there was no way with anybody looking at all, that an attack based on a riot that never occurred. there was no riot at all. to say that you're very incompetent or misleading. >> harris: the white house saying their response all along had been based on what they'd been told by the intelligence community.
4:03 pm
and senior advisor david axelrod says there's nobody more concerned about figuring out what happened than president obama. >> look, we want to get to the bottom of it. the first order of business to bring to justice those who committed this heinous act and secondly, find out what went wrong and what adjustments need to be made to further secure our diplomates around the world. >> steve centanni, steve? >> reporter: the administration continuing to take heat over the handling of that attack. as you mentioned, it was a spontaneous reaction to a protest. in benghazi. when vice-president biden said in the debate wednesday night that we weren't told that they wanted more security there in libya. he directly contradicted the sworn testimony of the regional security director for
4:04 pm
the state department. >> and today, obama campaign aide robert gibbs, whether the president is responsible for what is called a bungled response. the administration is responsible and countries that provide consulates and missions are responsible for keeping those safe and secure and what the president and secretary of state asked for so that we can understand directly all the things that happened and to take steps necessary to keep anybody that serves our country overseas safe from harm. >> and at the same time the mother of sean smith, the state department information officer killed in that benghazi attack tells fox news she got practically no information out of the obama administration how her son died until just a few days ago. >> leon panetta took his hands with my face and said, trust me, i will tell you the truth. i will get the right information to you, just trust me.
4:05 pm
and when i heard that, i knew i couldn't trust him and i don't trust any of them anymore. they lied. >> meantime, the u.s. senate has launched a bipartisan investigation of exactly what happened in benghazi, and we'll also examine the administration's response to it. harris. >> harris: steve centanni, thank you very much. >> reporter: you bet. >> harris: fox news is america's election headquarters. what will the next presidential debate bring? governor mitt romney and president barack obama said to be working out their strategies right now, out of-- how to outdebate the other. there's plenty riding on the outcome of tuesday's town hall style showdown, most importantly is perhaps momentum. governor romney's strong performance in the first debate with many polls. and gillespie acknowledging
4:06 pm
those, there's clearly momentum, you can see it on the trail, you can see it in the data, but the country is pretty evenly divided. >> the president meanwhile, hoping to build momentum and making changes to the debate strategy promising aggressive approach, and david axelrod earlier in fox news sunday. >> i think he's going to be aggressive in making the case for his-- where we should go as a country and a country that's built around a growing thriving middle class, not this top down theory that governor romney has. >> harris: chief white house correspondent ed henry is live for us in williamsburg, virginia, and we know the president haz been focused on debate prep the last couple of days, but you have new details how things are going. >> yeah, he tried to get out a little bitty guess, maybe cooped up at the resort in williamsburg and delivered pizza to the campaign office here, in virginia, can't forget it's a battle ground state. trying to sort of fire up the
4:07 pm
volunteers and get the base going, yes. he focused much more on what's going on behind closed doors and he's doing a lot of reading and looking at videotape, and of the first debate and also congressman paul ryan and mitt romney what they said on the stump and both debates and vice-presidential and presidential debate and what they're trying to get the president to be more like vice-president biden. if you listen to the advisors, they want to see more passion and step up in a way in which he did not in denver. take a listen. >> you'll see the president, as forceful, passionate, energetic, tone that demonstrates the choice that we have in front of us. obviously, the president is going to be respectful and the most important thing is to talk directly to the undecided voters asking these questions and give them the answer that they deserve on what's
4:08 pm
impacting most their lives. >> that last part critical because you read between the lines what robert gibbs is saying. a different format at hofstra university. it's a town hall and they'll be taking questions from actual voters, if you try to be too aggressive, but you know, perform like vice-president biden thursday, republicans thought he was interrupting and laughing at the wrong moments and that could back fire and look too negative when you've got real voters. and it's a balancing act. >> harris: not to put too fine a point on it, they are undecided voters admittedly. even though governor romney had a good first debate and he's getting ready for round two. >> not resting on that strong performance. the governor had two or three campaign rallies and running through the state with rob portman playing the president
4:09 pm
in the romney debate prep sessions and did one in ohio and another long one today. the bottom line, when you talk to his advisors, no matter what adjustments the president makes to get ready for the big secretary debate, they still think that romney has the edge. take a listen. >> the president can change his style, he can change his-- he can't change his record and he can't change his policies. that's what the record is about, the fact that $4,300 drop in income has occurred under his watch. >> now, after tuesday's debate, the third and final presidential face-off will be the following monday down in florida. and so, the clock is ticking here and that's why there's such intense pressure on both candidates, frankly. you've got essentially a 50-50 race and they're each running out of opportunities to shake this up and make the final pitch to voters, harris. >> harris: and our viewers can see the clock 20 days before the election, they can see it running. ed, henry, thank you very
4:10 pm

4:12 pm
arlen specter to thank for that as many families across america do. >> reporter: and harris, the specter family says the funeral will be held on tuesday. . >> harris: yeah, peter, a lot of prominent figures all over the nation expressing their memories as we saw mr. sustech doing that and president obama. >> today president obama said in a statement, arlen specter was always a fighter from his days stamping out corruption, as a prosecutor in philadelphia, to three decades of service in the senate. arlen was fiercely independent never putting party or ideology and we heard from former president george w. bush, released a statement, said arlen specter loved our country and served it with integrity three decades in the united states senate and laura and i appreciate his contributions to america and grateful for his many years of public service. again, harris, prominent

4:32 pm
anchoring with megyn kelly and right now is live from the battle ground state of new hampshire, bret, first of all, let's set the stage for the next debate. this room, you might call it a tough room like some comedians like to say, it will be filled with undecided voters? >> that's right, harris, it's a different format. this is the town hall format hosted by andy crowley from cnn. questions from uncommitted voters, selected through a process through the gallup organization. the bottom line, it's a different environment for these two candidates, the president and governor romney. obviously, president obama is looking to bounce back from what both sides of the aisle were saying was a lackluster performance in the first debate. governor romney is trying to build on, well, pretty much every poll has shown has been a significant jump from his first debate. and has -- and he's trying to capitalize on that to try to
4:33 pm
move additionally some battle ground states like here in new hampshire. so, this is a big moment. these debates have been big moments in this election and this one will be another big moment. >> harris: you know, let's talk about the big moments for the people in the audience. i've been reading up on the selection process, how do they choose these people. >> reporter: it's run by the gallup organization, as it has been since the town haul format has been moved forward by the debate commission. uncommitted vote, they put out a release today. uncommitted voters either no preference for a presidential candidate at this point or who have a preference, but not committed to a candidate and say there's a chance they could vote for the other candidate. all of the participants, gallup says, are registered voters planning to vote on the november 6th election and is true in all gallup poll, the
4:34 pm
nassau county new york, from cell phones and how they screened for the voters in the hall. could somebody answer all of these questions and say, yeah i'm uncommitted and have an agenda to try to get into that hall? of course, but gallup is saying they did their best to screen for uncommitted voters. >> interesting, a venue, of course for showers, in 23 days, the swing states to learn something about them. you're in one tonight. tell us about it. >> yeah, we're continuing with the swing counties around the country and we have been to a number of them taking the show on the road. we're in rockingham county, in downtown portsmouth, a beautiful place. this county is a swing county. the state of new hampshire went by president obama by about 10 points, but rocking ham was one of the counties that was very slim, it went to
4:35 pm
president obama, but only about 1500 votes. this is a, in portsmouth, a democratic area, but rockingham is kind of a republican leaning county. this state went to president bush in 2004. the latest poll, the real politics average has the state at about 1 point. some polls have it, 1, 2, maybe 3 points towards president obama, but it seems to be shifting after that first debate. so rockingham county, one of the swing counties and that's why we're here and we'll have a special report tonight with a local panel and talk to a bunch of folks about the issues and what's really on their mind. >> 1500 votes, and the people waiting for president in that county and that's truly some swing, bret. one last question. >> yeah, that's right. >> harris: one last question for you, it's one of the stories breaking late today here on fox news channel, the passing of the former senator arlen specter and your thoughts on that. >> you know, he's such an interesting political figure
4:36 pm
with his long life in politics. and what a character in politics, starting as a democrat, becoming a moderate republican, chairing the senate judiciary committee and sitting over all of those judicial nominations, including supreme court nominations. i interviewed them many, many times and following the campaign when he eventually lost as a democrat. becoming a democrat, yeah. today i talked to the former new hampshire governor john sununu and he reflected back on his experiences with senator specter. >> i got to know arlen reasonably well, pretty well, actually during the hearings and he turned out to be quite helpful. i thought a lot of liberals got angry for him, but he had made a commitment and he deserves credit and he stuck to it. one small family anecdote about it.
4:37 pm
he had his cancer and going to chemo and lost all of his hair and in solidarity john shaved his head so arlen wouldn't be the bald head walking around and they got along quite well, even though they were quite different, but i think that arlen appreciated that. >> reporter: whatever you thought about arlen specter's politics or his back and forth, republican, democrat, he handled his battle with cancer, harris, with grace. >> harris: absolutely. 30 years on the senate. bret baier giving us not only his perspective on things, but a breaking news story today. thank you for joining us tonight. tune in for the fox news second presidential debate and the best political analysis, anchored by bret and megyn kelly. caught hitch weekdays, i

4:47 pm
on a 90 minute briefing from the prosecution and the defense here at guantanamo bay, what they're going to hear next week, about two dozen negotiations for the 9/11 trial and it's clear from the brefg that we had, there's a conscientious issue, in the clays of khalid shaikh mohammed, the government wants to keep out the evidence related to his time in the cia secret prisons where they say he was water boarded 183 times and the prosecution does not want to compromise the method or national security in the case, by leaving the information. when look at the data, what you'll see is the last five years has been pretty static. under president bush there were 380 detainees. when president obama took office in 2009 there were 232 and right now 161 detainees
4:48 pm
